Server browser would be nice.
Being stuck in Australia makes finding a decent pinging game almost impossible.
Constant lag outs or really bad skipping are sucking the fun right out of the multiplayer.


Even an advance search option where you can enter a ping range, to be used with the quick match would be good.
Also I'd love to know how the Mass Effect 3 quick match currently matches players. Is latency even taken into consideration when connecting players?

The servers are a total joke at the moment, every single game turns into a lag fest.

FIX!


Seriously.. I've quit so many games because it was literally impossible to play. One moment I'd be meleeing a Cannibal and the next moment I'd be 10 ft away, dying.

I can't invite/join and play with friends anymore. (Joining game... < Game essentially frozen -> Alt+F4)
This is horrible.

Any fix on the way?


I have the same problem. Here is a tip for you if you don't want to alt+f4 the game: When it stucks at "Joining game...", open your Origin and try to join your friend's game again. But now, don't select char, simply press Exit button.

Anyhow, I'd like this fixed as well. (not to mention disconnecting during wave 10/11)


I have the same problem. I get stuck on the "Joining game..." screen when I try to join the game of some of my Origin friends. They can't join my lobby either. Today I could even hear the people in the lobby talking while I was stuck in the joining process, but I didn't show up in the lobby.

On ps3 I randomly get stuck on the connecting to server message when I start up the game and then I get disconnected from PSN for no reason once a day.

I've had this happen to me 4 times today. After the last time I just put down my controller and turned off my console. If this keeps happening I'm just turning this game into Gamestop. After the dissapointment of the single player game the multiplayer is the only thing holding my interest.

I am betting they use the same "random" system as weapons/characters unlock...

I give up. It's now utterly useless trying to play this game. Finished two matches out of about 30 since Resurgence was released. Way too much time completely and utterly wasted with zero reward to keep trying.

I'd *like* to enjoy the game, but EA's deplorable server infrastructure is making that impossible.

Are the servers down for anyone else? I joined two games - the 'leader' was being a jerk in the lobby for both so I left, now I can't connect to the EA server.

trankage - make sure that UPnP is disabled for your modem if you're PC.

Mixing up the weapons in the packs would be nice.
I keep getting weapons I do not use, and never get weapons I want to use.
Throw us a bone Bioware, and mix up the weapons in the packs please.

Apparently they're going offline for maintenance, but that's supposed to be in 2 more hours.... jumped the gun?

Yeah I noticed that post when I had a look around the forums. Might just try later and see what happens. :)

In the immortal words of most of the women I've slept with "It's not me, it's you."

Zero connection issues before Resurgence. Don't try and put this back on some ham-assed FAQ-reading support monkey response. This is pure and simply a ****ty patch deployment and god-awful server management.

The ME3 multiplayer is killer in principle and application but absolutely HORRENDOUS in delivery. I've been battling away with scores of great players of all abilities only to watch our hard work and cooperative fun get trashed by disconnections, lag and malfunctioning store purchases. When you've 87000 credits in the store and you're working your Geth buns off to hit that 99000 limit and grab an advanced spectre cache (in the desperate hope you'll upgrade your SMG) and it takes 3 hours to finish a Bronze game on wave 6 (because every other player but you was kicked from the game by the server and yet you still had to TRY and finish the thing!) well ... it's not even mildly amusing.
Then after all that, you only pick up some thermal rounds and character training for a fething Salarian ... I ask you, what would the Illusive man do?

Hey Mrbobbyboy - I (aerobatiks) was in one of those games with you (yesterday I think) and I got disconnected from the EA servers and dropped out of the game. I just wanted to let you know I didn't bail on purpose. I've been getting disconnected for the last 4 or 5 days at the rate of 3 out of 4 games. I agree with you that the game is a good game, but the disconnection issue is enough to make you want to slap someone... Hard!

Hey man - great to hear we rocked a game together. It's a brilliant co-op game and it's such a shame these faults are messing it up. I totally understand when players get kicked from the system. In fact I pretty much think all the players I've enjoyed some battles with have left through server fault. I've only come across a couple of kids who repeatedly drop out on purpose and it's almost always when they're not getting the highest scores. Why does that even matter? We all win if we get to the finish line together, right?
Hope to catch you in a non-disconnecting session soon - I just pray I don't embarrass myself like I did this morning (tried out a human adept for the first time and just kept getting nailed ... blast it!)

Needed around 1,000 credits for a Premium Spectre Pack so I set up a private solo run on bronze. It took me 4 tries to get past Wave 3 because of all the server disconnects this evening.  (This is on PS3, with a 10MB connexion which appeared stable throughout.)

Oh well, at least it wasn't Wave 10 on silver against the reapers whilst blinged out with level 3 equipment.  Certainly these issues seem vastly worse since Resurgence.

I've not been able to connect properly to a multiplayer game for a good few days now (I'm on PS3). I know about apparent maintenance for today, but it's not been working for me at all recently. Anyone else having this trouble or know what it could be?

Yeah, server disconnection issues are really taking out what fun I'm having with ME3 (PC). Single player? No point, as it doesn't matter what I do, it still has only one ending. Multiplayer? Somewhat addictive, just trying to get enough points for the next pack, trying to get my 'collection' complete. I've got all classes up to 20 now and have nearly all the characters, except for an Asari Adept (I have the Justicar, yay!), a Geth Engineer and a Salarian Infiltrator. Also lots of weapons, including the awesome M-37 Falcon and Striker assault rifles, as well as the M-13 Raptor, M-98 Widow and the Kishock Harpoon Gun. They make playing Bronze against Cerberus a breeze...

.. until a disconnect that left me and one other squadmate stranded at wave 4 or so. No one joined up, but we almost made it anyway. :D Random disconnects while starting a game, problems buying a pack from the shop, which leave me with no credits but no new pack.. :crying:

I see the "maintenance" did absolutely nothing. Terrific, still dropping out of games and the lag is just as wonderful as ever.

The problem is not that you can not connect, join and then play. the problem is when during play window pops-up with info that you lost connection to your Origin account on Bioware account and moves you to general menu of the game. You have to reconnect to EA Online (might take few attempts) and only then you can press "Multiplayer" in menu...that sux a bit...

Wave 11, 10 seconds from extraction, 2 revives and 3 missile launchers used, disconnected.

Starting to think I should request a refund of the MS Points/packs I bought via the BBB/ACCC due to the fact that I plain and simply cannot use the product I purchased due to their ****ty servers.

I really have never had too much of a problem with connectivity, but today EA servers dropped me in 4 different matches. This was throughout the day too, once in the morning, twice in the afternoon and just now. I just don't get it. I love to play, but this is so frustrating.
